Course Objectives: This course is an intermediate level 3D modeling and animation course. The aim of this course is to help students to gain experience on some special subjects of 3D modeling and animation. Students will create a complete major project on any intermediate level subject of 3D, which they want to specialize, from scratch. Instructor / mentor of the course will guide students to complete their major projects. In addition, lectures will be focused on several special subjects and these lectures will be supported by class works and minor home works. These lectures will also help students to create, develop and complete their major projects. Every student have to create their own major projects for final submission while collaborative work will be supported for class works and home works.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
I. To practice on creating a 3D project from scratch.
II. Practice skills in special subjects of virtual 3D environment.
III. Practice skills of intermediate and advanced animation in 3D environment.
